What a result for the Trust!

  • No Tags

Well, the results for the Round the Island Race were fantastic for the Ellen MacArthur Trust, we had the first and the last boat to finish, and two other boats, both with 5 kids on each… In addition to that we had 10 walkers who, starting at 0430am walked around the island, and 40 cyclists who cycled the course…
Everyone had a fantastic time, from the walkers who walked 35miles, to the cyclists who beat us on our watery course, to the kids, most importantly, who had a ball.. Comments were that the race was wet and fun, and I can vouch that that was certainly the atmosphere onboard our boat! There were a few whoops and cheers as our two guests got a real hosing on the back side of the island…. But above all it was fun!

Hi Ellen, sounds great and well done to you all! How can people get involved in the Trusts fund raising?… Those of us who can’t sail!… Yet! Louise.

Hello Ellen,
I have to confess to nicking a couple of your photos from Google to illustrate my latest blog.
I have just done a little sail from Azores to North Wales. I wrote it up on my blogsite, but then I had to write another one setting the record straight as people kept thinking I was brave, and in actual fact I am a bit of a wimp!
Yours, eating my heart out,
Love Lorenzo.
